abhorrent1:The wife and I were in San Diego last year and went to the zoo and I gotta say, it's one of the crappiest zoos I've ever been too.

/Phoenix is a close second//Milwaukee zoo is farking awesome

Just curious what is one you liked? I go to the San Diego Zoo once a month and I enjoy it. But to me it is going for a walk with animals as the scenery. As far as the panda thing goes they will name it some Chinese word for sunshine or some stupid crap.

Like I said, Milwaukee zoo. Brookfield in my area is nice too but they want you to pay extra for the cool exhibits so fark them. I'm not paying $5 to see the stingrays after we paid $20 to get in.

When we went to SD zoo we about got lost in that horror that is the bird exhibit or whatever they call it. Seemed poorly laid out, lots of overgrown seemly empty/unused enclosures. Some the ones that had animals in them had so much overgrown weeds and crap along the rail, you could barely see into the enclosure. Just seemed poorly kept in general.

I do agree with your opinion on the bird area it needs some work. I go because I am a member and it is only a couple of blocks from my house so if I don't feel like driving to the mountains to hike I just spend a couple hours walking the zoo and Balboa Park.
